ĐÀ LẠT – The 10th biennial Đà Lạt Flower Festival is scheduled to run from December 6 to 31 this year with festivities and international music concerts, local authorities said.

With the theme “Hoa Đà Lạt - Bản giao hưởng sắc màu” (Đà Lạt Flowers - A Symphony of Colours) this time around, the festival will seek to spotlight the city’s floriculture and tourism and continue the efforts to make it a member of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network for its music.

Besides the usual flower shows, the event will also treat visitors to 12 musical performances with artists from Việt Nam, South Korea, and other countries.

There will also be seminars on the green transition and developing clean agriculture and music.

The festival was originally scheduled for just five days, but was recently extended to one month.

Since the event would be held during the peak tourism period, a shorter duration would make it hard for hotels and lodging facilities to accommodate the large number of visitors expected, the Lâm Đồng Province Department of Culture, Sports, and Tourism told Tuổi Trẻ (Youth) newspaper.

The longer duration would enable them to handle the crowd smoothly, it said.

In past years the festival has attracted an average of 700,000 visitors, and the number is expected to increase by 30 per cent this year.

Đà Lạt is among Việt Nam’s largest flower-growing regions, producing around three billion of them annually.

Last year it was named in the UNESCO Creative Cities Network for its commitment to promoting culture and creativity as part of its development. VNS
